A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the dentist’s parking lot: an old, dusty suitcase left behind. Curious, he opened it and found… braces? A whole set of them, neatly arranged inside. Confused, he took a picture and sent it to the office. Later that day, a note appeared on the door: 'Dear Delivery Driver, thank you for your diligence! These are indeed orthodontic appliances, but they’re from our last Halloween costume party. Please accept our apologies!'
2. Last week, a delivery driver pulled up to Helotes Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics and saw something peculiar in the parking lot—a tiny toothbrush had mysteriously appeared next to every car. Curious, the driver knocked on one of the doors. A little girl answered, smiling widely with her brand-new braces. ‘Oh, hello!’ she said. ‘We leave our toothbrushes here for good luck when daddy drops us off.’ The delivery man laughed, realizing he’d been part of their sweet tradition.
3. Last week, a delivery driver pulled up to Helotes Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics and found a curious sight: a small, perfectly aligned army of toy soldiers marching across the parking lot. Curious, the delivery driver got out to investigate. Just as he approached, one little soldier turned around, saluted smartly, and said, ‘Ma’am, may I help you?’ Startled, the driver burst into laughter. Turned out, it was just a neighborhood kid playing with his toys while waiting for his sister’s dental appointment.
4. Last week, a delivery driver pulled up to Helotes Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics and heard an unusual announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention all patients! Due to a recent dental emergency, please bring your own toothbrush today.’ The delivery driver looked around puzzled but shrugged it off, thinking maybe it was just another quirky thing about small-town dentists. As he walked in, he saw everyone happily brushing their teeth right there in the waiting room—some even using old-fashioned manual brushes! Turns out, it wasn’t an emergency after all—it was simply Dr. Helotes’ way of ensuring good oral hygiene before appointments.
